Just got back from Orlando (a full day saga to get back to O-Hare– uugh!) where I attended the Exponential Conference — AKA The 2007 National New Church Conference. While there, I had heard many great speakers (I’ll blog later) but I got a chance to check in with Mark Batterson, Lead Pastor at National Community Church in Washington DC. who told me that our church, Park Community Church has played a part in their baptisms. Apparently, a number of years ago, Mark saw a video of our baptism service in Lake Michigan with the Chicago skyline in the background and was inspired to do a lake baptism in the same style. Park ’s national influence continues…this time to Washington DC! Yea GOD!
Check out video of our Lake Michigan baptisms here.
